Plastimayd is now owned by Latham International, so there will be some changes. 28 mil liners are
now 27 mil, and all will have Latham's UltraSeam. Thickness options will
be limited for some patterns, also.

About Plastimayd Liners

Plastimayd has been making swimming pool liners for more than 60
years. I've been installing them for half that long, and I can only recall
one warranty issue in that time. That's pretty incredible, really.
These liners fit well, and I like installing them partly because they accurately
mark the corners and breakpoints, making installation faster and more precise.
Plastimayd categorizes their liner patterns by the depth of the color.
Secondary to that, patterns are available in different thicknesses, and
enhancements. Some patterns are available in all four options, some
available with matching textured tread others available in only 20 mil.
For 2017, Plastimayd offers 35 printed patterns, plus solids. Most are
available with Posi-Trac texture for covered stairs.

Categorically Speaking:

Classic
series are 20 mil. (twenty thousandths of an inch thick). 20 mil liners are adequate for most in-ground pools,
and until recently were the most common.

PermaWall,
Now called DuoMax liners have 27 mil walls, with a 20
mil floor. While that may seem backwards, there is actually more
potential for the walls to be damaged than the floor, especially in areas (like
Oklahoma) with
deep freeze-thaw cycles, thus the thicker walls.
Odds are, though, just about anything in Oklahoma that will damage 20 thousandths of an inch
would probably cut 27 thousandths, as well. One advantage to the Permawall is that, since the walls are thicker than the floor, the walls do not
stretch as much when the liner is installed. This means less
stress on the bead, and corners that tend not to bow in as the liner ages.

Premium, now called
SuperMax series liners are 27 mil
on both the floor and walls, and may be a good choice for pools with heavy use,
or when interior of the pool is less than perfectly smooth. Probably, most
pools would be better suited to the Premium series.

Ultramayd series
liners were 20 mil liners which had additives to help better withstand
chemicals, sunlight, and elements. Plastimayd said that the Ultramayd can
last up to 50% longer, but there are too many variables to consider when
deciding whether to pay the significant extra cost. UltraMayd
has been discontinued.

Solid liners have no
tile pattern. There are three plain colors, plus a very dark Tye Dye.
the plain colors are all 20 mil, the Tye Dye is available in all thicknesses.

Posi-Trac is Plastimayd's name
for the textured tread option for stairs and swim-outs. It is available in all
matching patterns except 4, and in 4 plain accent colors.

Latham Pool Products now owns
Plastimayd. The liners that we sell here in Oklahoma will still be
made in the Bossier City, Louisiana plant, so shipping times should still be
pretty good. They will now have Latham's UltraSeam. Personally, I
don't think it's that big of a deal. Plastimayd had good seams to begin
with, I never had one fail. They are supposed to be less visible, but not
really that much. More of a sales thing, if you ask me. Also, 28 mil
thicknesses are now 27 mil. Latham is a huge company that has been in the liner business a long
time, so we'll see what happens!
